Michel Mazzoni work is imbued with a sensitivity that gives heed to interactions between light immateriality, the point of view and the frame demand, like a continuous confrontation between perceptions. Seeing is enough, taking time, could we say.

"The series explores the issues of unemployment by collecting and documenting discarded job centre slips. The slips were found in and around three Sheffield jobcentres, between August 2009 and March 2010. Many were discovered well away from the jobcentres themselves: lying on back streets, scrunched in phone booths, and stuffed in salt bins. They have been collected and documented in their original state."

"A Moment Collected: Photographs at the Harvard Art Museum is a collection of images documenting the people and spaces of the museum in the years leading up to its closing for a major renovation. Both portraits and still life images, these photographs are about the strong sense of connection among the people and how deeply the spirit of the museum runs through its inhabitants. These photographs are about passion, community, and love, but they also speak to the passing of time, the idea of change, and the impermanent and fluid nature of each person’s involvement in a much larger existence."

Fiesta Ediciones publishes Federico Clavarino’s magnificent series, Ukraina Pasport, a very special book inviting us to cross the borders between past and future, childhood and adult age, reality and imagination. A journey in which Federico uses Ukrania’s political and social reality to talk about nostalgia and transformation.

"Eight is a meditation on the architectural vestige of Sir Reginald Blomfield who orchestrated, designed and selected the initial transmission towers for the UK.His vision remained faithful to the original Greek meaning of the word pylon as a monumental ancient Egyptian gateway to the sun."

"The work focuses on my fathers side of the family over a 5 year period. I hope to capture the universal experiences of loss, growth, and change brought on by the passing of time. This is the first volume of the ongoing project."

"Gottes bunter Garten is a fine, absurd-erotic coffee-table book-diary; the viewer rushes though a garden of absurdities, plated with subtle humour, he glances at the dark world of paid pain, rushes from room to room. The forbidden glance in the hotel room of a time where the decoration did not carry the attribute 'absurd' an voyeurism was not legitimised by media. These stories are told by the reality. Just turn around and you’ll be startled."

"I'm delighted to announce TVC#003, a collection of my own works, as the next publication from The Velvet Cell Books. These photos are from a study of East London during the period 2009-2010. They form the main body of two solo exhibitions I held in London in early 2010."

"Exhausted, abandoned, wounded, the collection of cars captured by Sébastien Girard are in fact desperate. We find them in the middle of the night, broken wrecks bearing the scars of their mad days wheeled by man. An analytical flash captures them in their everlasting solitude. Desperate cars is the second book of the series inaugurated by Nothing but Home."

"The man creates dysfunctional and entropic spaces during its landscape construction. Their own story has displaced them from the cause-effect line, dooming them to an eternal defeated present. Carlos Albalá & Ignasi López go through these places and represent them in a sort of emotional topography, creating emotional links with only exits for itself landscape which produces monuments with a maximum degree of iconicity. Evidences as to Man's Place in Nature is published as a book in which are included, fragmented, 8 photographs that forms this project and can be detached and mounted as wall photographs."

The book is divided in two parts with the team of timebox apparatus - camera. The first part addresses the question of the function of image in relation to time and movement. The second part is a research of the five pointed star icon that used to be a very important symbol in former Yugoslavia in relation to the communist system, which after the fall of the Berlin wall and with it the fall of communism in Europe, is more and more emptied of its “original” communist revolutionary meaning ...

OUR PHILOSOPHY

There is no selecting, editing and/or curating involved. If your books meet the formal criteria, it will be listed regardless of its content and our tastes.

We only list books or zines that cannot be bought via Amazon or commercial chain book stored. Also no Blurb books or MagCloud magazines, since those can be found easily via Blurb's/MagCloud's website.

We only accept announcements about existing print books or zines (strictly no fundraisers). By "zine" we mean not regularly published magazines, but rather one-time publications (which are often xeroxed/cheaply printed and stapled, thus resembling a magazine).

At the time of the listing, the book/zine has to be available (no "sold out") so people can actually order it online. No repeat announcements or "special offers" or "30% off" sale announcements.
